Prassi, natura e società. L'impostazione di Richard Rorty

The text focuses on Richard Rorty’s approach from a philosophical-political perspective. It proves to be emblematic of postmodernity and at the same time is the landing place of modernity. The human is condensed into social practice. The exclusion of knowledge as representation and the primacy of operations converge in a methodical relativism. Thus the justifiability of a thesis in the presence of a community is not given by its intrinsic validity, but on the basis of the beliefs shared therein.
